Now that we are firmly rooted in what we would refer to as the lengthy “Game of Thrones” hiatus, this calls for the beginning of the “Game of Thrones” notes to really touch on some assorted highlights from around the world of the show. Some will be funny, some informative, and some completely random. We […]
Matt Carter Game of Thrones, True Blood
It’s starting to become clear now that “True Blood” is no longer the tent-pole of HBO’s lineup. Just last year, it was pretty unequivocal that when it comes to people viewing live, the vampire drama was still #1 in total viewers along with the 18-49 demographic. However, it now feels like the White Walkers have […]
When you have a cast like “Game of Thrones” that is literally over 20 people strong, one of the real luxuries is that every time there is a possibility for someone new to step up and become the breakout star. When looking back at season 1, this has to be Emilia Clarke’s Daenerys for us […]
When you watch “Game of Thrones” after reading the George R.R. Martin books, it is admittedly rather hard to be surprised by anything. However, we were then met with some surprise to see Theon Greyjoy playing a part at a time during the books when he was absent. So what was the purpose of this? […]
Matt Carter Game of Thrones, Mad Men
Who is really the worst TV father of them all? It’s an interesting question, and one we certainly pondered going into Father’s Day on Sunday. Yes, we know that there are plenty of great fathers out there in the world of television (Burt Hummel, Cam and Mitchell, Richard Castle), those are all a tad boring […]
For this “Game of Thrones” season 4 article, we are really pushing forward the clock a pretty long ways … straight until the spring of 2014. This is when, pending some enormous change that shocks the hearts of fantasy fans everywhere, the beloved series will be back on HBO. So when will the show be […]
For “Game of Thrones” thus far, one of the benefits of having a show versus a movie is that you are able to cram so much more in. That means that while George R.R. Martin’s books would be gutted at the seams were they turned into a three-hour film for each chronicle, they have a […]
We’ve spent a good bit of time as of late talking about Emmy submissions this week, in addition to predicting some likely nominees, (which you can read a little bit more about at this link.) Earlier, we announced some shocking news which was that Brendan Coyle was not on the ballot for “Downton Abbey” despite […]
Even though Ramsay Snow may not be a king or hold a title of any kind, he has still managed to come up with a rather interesting honor all his own: Being a man that is so demented, Joffrey even pales in comparison. It was not until the “Game of Thrones” season 3 finale that […]
Somehow, there is still more to say about the “Game of Thrones” finale two days after the fact. We’re rather grateful there is, and this may be a testament to how strong HBO’s fantasy epic really is. Even after touching on Arya and some other characters rather extensively, it’s a thrill to know that there […]
